About ESXCLI Commands :
You can manage many aspects of an ESXi host with the ESXCLI command set. You can run ESXCLI commands as vCLI commands or run them in the ESXi Shell in troubleshooting situations. You can also run ESXCLI commands from the PowerCLI shell by using the Get-EsxCli cmdlet. … Each ESXCLI 5 command uses the same syntax.
1) Command : esxcli software vib list
About : It will Lists all the currently installed VIBs on ESXi. A VIB is a file packaging format used to distribute software on ESXi.
2) Command : esxcli software vib update -d “/tmp/update.zip”
About : It will use to update an installed VIB on ESXi. Note that the command does not install any new software. Instead it only updates what’s currently installed. Use esxcli software vib install instead when installing new software. The -d parameter specifies the full path to the package being used for the update. As per the next screenshot, I specified a non-existing patch hence the error message.
Thanks hope you like it.
